  2. Looks like I'll just pull 4 in, anyway price has gone in now!
  3. I'm pricing an install where I need to future proof for expansion. Currently 16 cams on site, I'll be adding another 8 but with potential for 8 more after that (I'm swapping out existing DVR & installing 2 x 16 ways). I need to allow for some redundancy in case of cable breakdown & the additional possibility of maybe 1 or 2 more cameras. Power will be available at the camera split location where the duct comes out the ground. then run up a pole where cables will be aerial with catenary wire. This will prevent voltage drop. All cams will be HD-TVI 1080p 2mp 2.8mm - 12mm varifocal domes/bullets depending on location. I have to install cams approx 100 or so metres away from DVR. I came across a US manufacturer who makes 4 or even 8 CAT cables in one outer sheathing. This would need to be duct grade preferably gel filled. Obviously I can pull 4 in, but if there is a supplier in the UK that does this I would like a price. I have trade accounts with Luxrite, System Q, CEF, Kew, HBL, Norbain, Techvision, SAS but none of them do this. I have contemplating putting a cab in to the expansion area and multiplexing the signals back to the DVR then separating them maybe using fiber, but I think the cost will be prohibitive. Any suggestions?

  13. Thanks for all your replies gents, quite a thread! Well, since posting this I have done 3 installs with Hikvision tribrid recorders (HD Turbo variety) and 2 using the Dahua kit. The Hikvision is 1080p 2mp & the Dahua is 720p 1.3mp, all using varifocal domes. Well, quite honestly, they all work great & finding differences is hard. I'm still really none the wiseras to which is best, but I am finding the tribrid Hikvision HD Turbo with associated cameras from MIECCTV is generating the highest profit margin. I've had no call backs & rock solid performance. Easy to use interface with all the features you expect. The Dahua stuff is also great but slightly more expensive. Over thepast 4 years I have installed so many different bits of kit to try to find a decent regular supplier that I can get to know inside out... year before last I installed several Luxrite systems, then last year mainly Alien DVRs from Systemq. All work great with no issues, but price wise more costly. I suppose time will tell whether I get a call back after a year or 5 years! Thanks again for all your replies...

  19. I've got several installs coming up with HD kit. I've installed HD-SDI using Luxrite kit which has been fine, but it's super competitive now with suppliers, I have 4 or 5 of them with similarly specced kit, but I want to only use one supplier that is competitively priced, robust & reliable. I'm looking at the "Alliance" tribrids from MIECCTV (they can take a 12TB eSATA hard drive and analogue & HD-TVI cameras with 2 IP cameras). They seem good spec, cameras 1080p 2mp 2.8mm to 12mm varifocal lenses at a great price. Anyone any opinion on SDI versus TVI and what supplier to use? I've also had quotes from Systemq, Aban technology, CCTV direct & Y3K, MIECCTV come out cheapest.
